package conflicts

[joshuacox]

Following the directions for creating the environment in the installation.md I get conflicts.

conda env create -f environment_linux.yml

I figured I would try and update a few of these and give a pull request back with updates, however I failed miserably. I tried the suggestion from @TheStoneMX in #9 and followed the directions in the post he gave. I appended '37' to the name to signify python 3.7 as I surmised this might be the issue:

conda create --name ml4t37 python=3.7
conda activate ml4t37
conda env update --file environment_linux.yml

In either case, I get an amazing amount of package conflicts (9,266 lines of conflict errors which I am attaching).

error.log

This enourmous amount of conflicts leads me to believe that I have done something wrong as it seems excessive for this. I have duplicated this on both an arch linux machine and a bionic beaver machine. Any suggestions on what I might have done wrong?

@joshuacox, just delete de anaconda directory and start from scratch, it will solve all your problems

[joshuacox]

@TheStoneMX what anaconda directory? I have deleted the entire anaconda installation and reinstalled using miniconda, but I got the same 9,266 lines of errors.

Some of these packages do not exist anymore, for example ftfy=4.4.3

conda search ftfy

I also had this issue too. I followed installation.md to use conda env create -f environment_linux.yml but i got ftfy=4.4.3 not found

what you have to do is to delete the line ftfy=4.4.3 in the installation.md and then install the environment. After that you conda activate ml4t and then you simply have to pip install ftfy==4.4.3. This worked for me.
